Even though she is standing next to a FREAKY CLOWN.
I’m not a clown fan either!
I think it’s sweet the clown was at a kid party in these times though. It seems so retro. Sweet (if you like clowns, that is).
I love that how Ray asked whether Sophie interracted much and you said you didn’t either. That sounds like me. I think as journalists/reporters we come off as being good chatters (BSers?) but a lot of us are secretly, deathly shy.
At parties I like the fact that I can use making sure Leo doesn’t escape as an excuse to not talk to anyone for too long.
And about the fish-I’m not a huge fan either. And I sent Erin out to get dog food this weekend and she came home from Petco with a goldfish. I freaked! I’m so afraid Walter is going to die. I’m stressed about the thought of being responsible for another living thing. I can’t imagine a whole tank.

People are so funny aren’t they? Sophie is adorable. It can be hard when kids are too friendly but there’s also something about it that I didn’t want to completely train her out of!

Why do clowns have names like Petunia? I think I have a picture of my middle son with a clown named Petunia. He’s about 4, rolling his eyes and not happy at all about it.

I personally hate clowns. They freak me out. I did meet one this year that was not too bad.

Seriously, I think you are right about people not liking clowns. They are creepy. ( The clowns – not necessarily the people).
